Hi, I would like a total bithead 2006 in clear casing but since those are not available (the clear airheads are still left) I want to know If I could get a bithead then and airhead and have the cases swapped. I think the only difference I recall is the dc jack vs the usb jack opening, and I was wondering if something could be done I can work with hot knives and the such but I don't remember the material too well and probably would look pretty ugly..
I owned a clear airhead as my first amp and loved it, and unfortunately sold it and now want a bithead right after the clear color got discontinued. Nostalgia bites hard.
I'm posting this because even though I have a wtb up in the sale forums I will be going on a long cruise vacation soon and just have to have this amp because I'll be taking photos of the rig on the sand, etc. Totally arbitrary... I know...
Thanks.

Aha! We have a solution for you. Mike will post here shortly, or better yet if you could email mike@headphone.com and he'll work it out with you.
BTW, for any of you who have oddball requests, A) careful, being an oddball can be habit forming, and 2) Call Mike; it's amazing how often he can handle oddballs.
Well ... that didn't sound quite right, but you get the idea.

Or you can buy mine from me!
I am getting a Micro Portable, so I will not need my BitHead.
It is in perfect working condition (BitHead Clear, just like what you're after).
Shoot me an email if interested.
Hi everyone
I've contacted Mike @ headroom and will indeed be getting a clear bithead! A very special one too
Thanks a bundle you guys are so awesome. Ill post pics of the amp in action when I get it.

Well my order arrived exactly on time! What's special about it is that this bithead was the last clear one they made! I feel so lucky, and doubly lucky that everything came in such an orderly manner. Here is a pic of it alongside another bithead I acquired a few days ago.
I have a phase inverter vst plugin... now all I need to do is figure out how to output to two usb audio devices simultaneously
and also make a 4 pin female xlr to dual stereo 1/8 plug adapter...
